Baby #3 - 35 weeks

I'm technically 35 weeks and 5 days.  Apparently I haven't blogged what the past few appointments were about...so here's a catch up.

A few weeks ago I saw Dr. Brown (I hadn't seen him yet during this pregnancy). And after looking at my chart and seeing the Parvo Virus I had early on he decided to start ordering weekly NST (non-stress test) and Ultrasound. These were to check and see if I was having any effects from the virus. Apparently, it can cause a decrease in activity and low fluid levels around the baby. I've had 3 of them done so far and the baby looks super healthy each time. It's a little bit more inconvenient, since my appointments are longer but I do get to see my sweet little guy every week, which makes me very happy!

Today I got to see Sarah, my favorite US tech and the one who scanned me with all three babies. :) She is so sweet and funny. She let me sneak some peeks of Blake on 3D and that was fun. He's getting so big now that it's hard to really get a good picture. But she printed out some fun little shots for me to take home of his face. I showed them to the girls and they think he looks cute (and a little funny).

They also tested me today for Group B strep & I was "checked". So as far as that goes - there is nothing to report. :)

I am feeling pretty good. I am uncomfortable when it comes to sleeping and I am in full waddle mode when I walk! I seriously think I must look ridiculous, but hopefully it's not as bad as it feels!! My appetite is pretty much non exsistent. I must force myself to eat at this point and when I do, I get full so quick! I feel like I have a turkey dinner sitting in my stomach at all times. I lost 2 pounds this week and that's not a good thing. The doctor wasn't majorly concerned but she did say that I needed to gain more by next week. Honestly, I think I have enough fat stored up that he can eat on that for awhile! haha So, that brings my grand total of weight gained so far to 7 lbs! I'm not trying to keep it low, but I am not really complaining....as long as he is healthy!

I go back to the doctor next week to do the same tests again. I could be having a baby in 3 weeks....that is pretty crazy to think about!
